Chapter 293 Giant Bacteria

“It’s this sign!”

KIKI immediately remembered: "So the research team that Uncle Wu and his friends encountered before was from this Crimson Pharmaceuticals?"

"It should be the Crimson World." Ning Jing said at this time: "This is not the logo of Crimson Pharmaceuticals, but it is definitely this organization."

"Director Ding, please scan it, Abai, and see if there is any problem?" Lin Xian pointed in the direction of the main building and said to the two.

"No, the fungal mat outside is too thick, and we can't detect what's going on inside." Ding Junyi said at this time, and Abai also shook his head.

"This place has been parasitized to this point. Is there really still anyone alive here?" Ning Jing frowned. The entire building was completely covered by a fungal blanket. If it weren't for the shape of the building, it would have almost become a giant mycelium plant, covered with all kinds of mushroom spores and tumors, looking very weird.

"Caution comes first."

rub rub!
After Lin Xian finished speaking, he directly made two drones. He could now control them remotely, and the small drones he made could be directly controlled without any remote control equipment. Lin Xian immediately let the drones rush in front, and he led a group of people following behind and walked towards the main building.

Above the sky, a large number of white down mushroom caps kept falling, accompanied by the brown and yellow spore mist covering the surroundings. The vision gradually became blurred. The revolving door of the main building had been completely blocked by mycelium, and the automatic glass door was glued open by the mycelium. KIKI immediately grabbed it with his telekinesis and pulled the entire door down with a bang.

"Go in quickly and don't touch those mushroom caps!"

Huahuahua, just as everyone rushed into the dark hall of the main building, there was a constant hissing sound on the ground behind them. The mushroom caps fell on the mycelium tumors clinging to the building. The white mycelium instantly began to spread. The zombie corpses wrapped inside were entangled by the mycelium and seemed to come alive suddenly. They let out a shrill roar, and tumor-like fungus bags continued to grow all over their bodies, and their skin fell off inch by inch.

As soon as he entered the outer gate hall, Lin Xian directly created a large-scale lighting lamp and raised it up in the hall, instantly illuminating the main building hall. The originally magnificent hall was now in a mess, with human fungi everywhere. Some were running and some were climbing. At this moment, they had been parasitized by mycelium and solidified in place. When the light appeared, these human fungi began to shake constantly and came towards the direction of the light.

"Find their lab and make it quick and easy!"

"it is good."

Lin Xian didn't care whether he would alarm these people at this moment. He kept lighting up the way. At the same time, two drones quickly flew through the corridor, searching for suspicious targets.

"This kind of pharmaceutical company usually has a core laboratory that includes many subjects. It may take a lot of time to find it." Ding Junyi followed Lin Xian. Many corners of the dust-free corridor were covered with fungal blankets, and there were signs of mold everywhere. She used the visual system of the Black Hawk armor to quickly capture the area map of the building, and then after a partition inspection, she said: "It's in Building C. You can go down through the central elevator."

sizzle

Electricity surged from Lin Xian's palms, and the lights in the entire corridor flickered continuously in the direction the team was moving, forming a temporary lighting system.

The deeper you go, the more parasitic mycelial roots you see, and even some corridors are completely occupied.

boom!
Ning Jing blew up a piece of mycorrhizal wall with one punch and cleared the passage. In order to avoid causing an explosion, the task of clearing the way could only be assigned to Ning Jing and Kiki. Abai and Huo Ge's abilities were both flammable and explosive, so they could only follow silently.

"Something's coming!"

At this time, Abai and Ding Junyi said almost at the same time.

Lin Xian and others stopped immediately. At this time, everyone was passing through a narrow corridor. Under the activation of Lin Xian's mechanical ability, only one area was brightly lit, and the other areas were hidden in mycelium and darkness.

Time and again~

The sound of something climbing rapidly continued to be heard in the empty corridor. When Lu Xingchen heard it, he immediately held the fire in one hand and prepared to attack, but the next moment, Lin Xian raised his hand to block it.

"Don't act rashly. There are mycelium everywhere. If it catches fire, none of us will be able to escape."

"Let me do it." Ning Jing walked forward, looking straight into the darkness ahead. In the entire team, only she and Kiki were more suitable to take action. When she heard something approaching rapidly in the darkness, she immediately clenched her fists.

But who would have thought that just when the sound was about to break through the darkness, it suddenly stopped, and the entire corridor suddenly became quiet, with only the mycelium constantly twisting under the light.

"Ran?"

Gululu.

At this time, a rolling sound was heard behind him. Lin Xian simply stretched out his hand and waved. Two drones flew one after the other into the darkness in front and behind. Then soon, everyone saw the source of the sound. They saw a large number of human head fungi rolling in from the far end of the corridor behind. They all had green and rotten faces, and were entangled with hyphae, which looked extremely terrifying!
"Come on!"

Lin Xian immediately led everyone to run forward. The light of the drone attracted a large number of human head fungi and human fungi with twisted joints to gather in the building. Fortunately, these things were relatively slow and posed no threat to everyone.

Just as the group was about to cross a laboratory area, Luo Yang, who was running, suddenly saw a dark shadow approaching him quickly in a corridor on the side!

The next moment, a strange fungus corpse with sharp claws, hunched over, blue body and wearing an experimental dust-free suit suddenly jumped out of the darkness and pounced directly at him.

Uh-huh! ! !

This zombie was extremely fast, grabbing the ground with its sharp claws and rushing forward like a wild beast, with a strong smell of laboratory disinfectant all over its body.

Luo Yang's pupils immediately condensed, and he subconsciously prepared to use his supernatural power, but Lin Xian suddenly stood in front of him and shouted, "Be careful!"

hum!
A translucent AT force field unfolded in front of Lin Xian, and the strange corpse that rushed out collided head-on with the force field. A large amount of black ash-like substance instantly burst out of its body and sprayed on the wall. Upon closer inspection, the black ash was actually wriggling, and it kept splitting into slime mold like a spider, and soon covered most of the wall, which was extremely weird.

"Hey!" Kiki quickly sent out a telekinesis wave to directly blast the strange corpse out, and crushed out a large amount of black fog with a bang.

"Don't touch these things, Sister Ning, and don't do anything!" Lin Xian's face looked a little ugly when he saw this scene. He brought so many powerful people out, but the things they encountered were more bizarre than each other, and he had no idea where to start.

Ning Jing frowned when she heard this: "Looking at the clothes on this strange corpse, it should be an experimental subject imprisoned in the laboratory."

"We are currently exposed to too many types of mycelium characteristics. With the information we have, it is best not to act rashly." Ding Junyi looked at the abnormal information of various air parameters in the holographic vision and said, "I suggest you quickly find someone from the Crimson World. They must know a lot of relevant information."

"In this situation, it's not certain if there are any survivors." Lin Xian looked at the scene, without stopping, and led everyone to run towards the atrium of the building.

From the regional map, we can see that the upper floors of Crimson Pharmaceutical Group are mainly administrative areas and business areas, while the core freezing laboratories are all underground and need to be taken down through the vertical elevator in the atrium. Apart from there, there is basically no valuable search area in the entire building.

"It's just ahead, Kiki, use the telekinetic shield to protect yourself, and ignore anything you see on the road!"

Lin Xian was making arrangements while running forward, but something strange happened: the closer he got to the atrium, the fewer mycelium there were around him, as if they were suppressed by some special force.

At the same time, the lights gradually became brighter, and he no longer needed to use mechanical powers to light the lights. The originally dirty ground and walls became spotless, and the interior scene of a high-end luxurious pharmaceutical company began to appear in front of Lin Xian.

The spacious and bright floor, the holographic advertising screen in the corridor displays the corporate culture of "Crimson Pharmaceuticals". A bald middle-aged man in a suit and smart glasses appears in the screen, talking with great enthusiasm.
“Crimson Pharmaceuticals is committed to reshaping the infinite possibilities of life from the perspective of genetic technology… We have allowed CRISPR gene scissors to transcend the dimension of “editing” – through AI-driven quantum base folding, it can not only repair faulty genes…”

"Professor Valen, a leading figure in federal biology, once said that humans are the top biological template in biological reproduction. Diseases, viruses, and defects are all inevitable processes of biological evolution, even including external factors such as natural disasters. Some people ask: Has gene editing crossed the forbidden zone of life? My answer is - when a mother saw her daughter with congenital metabolic defects run for the first time because of our mitochondrial regeneration therapy, when AI for early cancer screening reduced the mortality rate by 90% and saved tens of millions of families from terminal illness... what we are touching is not a forbidden zone, but the glory that civilization should have."

Lin Xian walked through the corridor. At this moment, a huge and bright atrium hall appeared in his sight, like a large science and technology building. Woo~ countless administrative drones were flying in the air, as if they were very busy.

The cylindrical central elevator was located in the front, surrounded by a circular information desk. Surprisingly, there was a young woman in uniform standing in front of the information desk, who seemed to be the lobby manager. Apart from that, the entire atrium lobby was empty, and Lin Xian could only hear his own footsteps.

The woman was extremely beautiful, and appeared to be in her early thirties. At this moment, she was looking at Lin Xian with a polite smile.

"Hello." The woman seemed to be talking to Lin Xian.

Lin Xian didn't say anything. He observed the surrounding environment and then looked behind him. A familiar feeling came over him - everyone was gone, leaving only him and the woman in front of him.

Click click click.

Lin Xian's eyes immediately narrowed, and his mechanical heart quickly expanded, capturing anything useful to determine his current situation.

The woman in uniform just looked at Lin Xian calmly and smiled.
"I understand you. You must be exhausted physically and mentally after escaping all the way. You are surrounded by dangers and may lose your life at any time. Now you see such a clean, bright, modern scene without any doomsday scenes. You must think you are in the wrong place or you are hallucinating."

Click click click.

Lin Xian's eyes glowed with supernatural light, and his mechanical heart began to expand to a wider range. "Have you ever thought that your understanding of death might be wrong?" The woman looked at Lin Xian's actions and continued, "As long as what you see, touch, sense, and smell is not doomsday and death, then what does the form of life exist have to do with it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of noisy footsteps in the atrium hall. Lin Xian looked up and saw a large number of people coming out of the passages in all directions. These people were both men and women, all naked. Regardless of whether they were men or women, they all had handsome facial features and figures, like perfect human creations.

These white human bodies were walking towards him, and Lin Xian immediately began to step back. As his gaze changed, he found that the number of men in the crowd began to decrease, and some stayed where they were and left. Only women were left rushing forward. These women were of different heights, weights, and skin colors, hair colors, and even body shapes and bust sizes.

As these people approached, as if they were being quickly screened, those women with slim figures and fair skin gradually became the mainstream, and their hair, bones, and hair color gradually became the types that Lin Xian liked the best or most. The strangest thing was that the appearance of the screened women gradually changed towards beauties that impressed Lin Xian, such as Chen Sixuan, Kiki, Ding Junyi and even Monica.

Soon, hundreds of gorgeous "Teacher Chen", "Kiki", "Monica"... came to Lin Xian and surrounded him. These beauties were naked, and their shiny skin was full of sexual temptation. They looked at Lin Xian with clear eyes, smiling, serious, cunning, or shy, invading almost all of Lin Xian's senses.

At the same time, the crowd began to open up, and naked beauties came up from behind with a variety of delicacies in their hands, including steak, roast duck, hot pot, fresh fruits, tempting desserts, and exquisite and mellow wines.

They said nothing, but kept offering various delicacies, or posing various postures of desire, or expressing their loyalty to be dominated.

In an instant, more men began to appear, kneeling on the ground outside the beauties towards Lin Xian, as if to express their submission and respect.

For a moment, Lin Xian's front was filled with all kinds of delicious food and aromas, beautiful women twisting their bodies constantly, and men kneeling down to him in large numbers. It was like a strange scene of human desire, which attracted all his senses and psychology and pulled them madly.

Click.

At this time, Lin Xian's mechanical heart finally captured something. He immediately took a deep breath, raised his left hand to cast an at force field shield, and at the same time, he clenched his right hand fiercely!
Empty!

A huge strange noise echoed in the hall. The face of the uniformed woman in the distance suddenly twisted. Then a chain reaction occurred with the women around Lin Xian who were twisting their bodies to beg for peace. Some of the postures twisted too much and turned into dislocation movements, which immediately broke people's normal cognition and made the originally erotic scene become weird.

And these women didn't seem to notice. As Lin Xian's supernatural power tore at them, their movements began to become more and more weird, as if there was an abnormality in the AI ​​drawing. Some of them silently grew an extra arm, some women grew 7 or 8 fingers on their hands, and some even had the horrifying sight of dislocated genitals, it was like a female hell!

"Eternal living bodies are... the ultimate solution to the reproduction of life. Hello, hello... I understand you. The whole journey of escape must have exhausted you physically and mentally. You must be tired. Don't be afraid..." The woman in uniform was still speaking incoherently and with weird logic.

Chichi! Chichi!
Lin Xian's superpowers surged rapidly, and the elevator door of the central elevator behind the woman began to open due to the restraint of the superpowers. The door of the elevator seemed to have encountered a huge obstacle, and the opening process became extremely slow. Lin Xian urged it with all his strength, and the elevator's motor made a humming sound. The next moment, the door of the elevator seemed to tear something open.

At this time, all the twisted female hells in front of Lin Xian disappeared, and the image reflected in his retina began to gradually become clear.

Suddenly, the smell of decay and mold swirled in his nasal cavity. In reality, his two drones were falling on a strange fungus mountain like a hill in front of him. The lighting was flickering. In Lin Xian's sight, the vertical elevator in the central hall was covered with a huge fungus blanket. The fungus blanket showed gorgeous colors and strange growths, like an exposed human internal organ, and looked like a living thing.

At the same time, a large amount of white mycelium had spread from under his feet to his body and began to cover his lower body. Various stimulating energies continued to come, and the alarm sound of the TRP armor in his ears gradually became clearer from vague.

【Driver’s abnormal heart rate warning】

[Driver brain wave signal abnormality warning]

"This stuff can cause hallucinations, gas masks are useless!"

With a click, Ding Junyi, wearing the Black Hawk armor, came over and pulled off the mycelium vines on Lin Xian's feet. She saw Lin Xian looking back at her and immediately asked, "Are you awake?"

"How long?" Lin Xian asked immediately.

"2 hour."

"So long?" Lin Xian asked in surprise, "Why do I feel like only 5 minutes have passed?"

Ding Junyi responded immediately: "Just now your brain was overloaded by 200%, and all the senses and dopamine happiness information in your body were mobilized, so you saw the pictures that were so realistic that they were all rendered by your brain!"

"how do you know?"

"The Black Hawk Armor's vital sign monitoring system told me that it's normal if you feel dizzy. It's also normal to be incontinent. It's just that we don't have time to change pants right now."

After Ding Junyi finished speaking, she immediately turned around and walked towards Kiki and the others behind her. At this time, these people were standing in the same place as Lin Xian just now, with a large amount of white mycelium covering their bodies.

"When did we get hit? How come we have no recollection of it at all?" Lin Xian was a little scared at this time, and rushed over to rescue them together with Ding Junyi. At this time, Kiki, Ning Jing, Abai Luo, Yanghuoge and others all closed their eyes and their eyeballs kept moving. It was obvious that they were trapped in some strong hallucinogenic scene.

Lin Xian first tore off all the hyphae on Kiki's body, checked her body and found no injuries, he breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to wake up the girl, he found that the girl's mouth was opening and closing, as if she was shouting something in a fantasy. Lin Xian frowned and quickly leaned over to listen.

"Yes, kneel down before me and say you are wrong!"

"Lin Xian, sing a song for me and perform a show!"

"Stop laughing, slap me!"

"You're the one calling me babe? You should call me Queen."

"You dare to touch me? Come here. Sister Chen is not here. Let me kiss you~"

"Come on, take off your pants and let me..."

"Wake up!" Lin Xian felt something was wrong the more he listened, so he reached out and pinched Kiki's nose to wake her up.

Kiki felt a sudden pain and opened her eyes immediately. When she saw Lin Xian in front of her, she blinked in surprise. After a while, she finally reacted and said hurriedly:
"Why is this illusion so real? I... haven't we returned to the car and escaped the polar night safely? Why are we still here?"

Lin Xian glanced at her and said, "Are you okay?"

"No...it's okay."

"Ouch~"

Seeing Lin Xian's eyes, Kiki suddenly remembered something, her face turned pale, and she quickly covered her head and looked around: "Ouch~ My head hurts."

Seeing that Kiki was fine, Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief. The situations of the other people were similar. The hallucinations caused by the mycelium would constantly make him generate strong desires, thereby activating the human body's happiness factors and continuing to develop, eventually making people completely solidify in place and covered by mycelium.

In just two hours, the mycelium almost covered most of itself, which was extremely terrifying.

"Oh my god, what's going on?" Luo Yang kept scratching his head and felt a splitting headache.

Ning Jing and the others also had strange expressions on their faces, except Brother Huo, who frowned slightly at this moment, with an expression that looked a bit aftertaste and a bit self-blame.

"This illusion is really abominable. It made me go on the road to becoming a god in vain. Sigh, it seems that I am too obsessed..."

Lin Xian took a look and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, pay attention. We have to speed up. There are some things that our gas masks can't protect against. We need to be more vigilant."

"Is this thing alive?!" Kiki was very angry at this time. He looked at the huge fungus above him, gritted his teeth, raised his hands and used his telekinesis to tear it apart. He actually tore the huge fungus apart directly. In an instant, the fungi on the ground seemed to be affected and vibrated.

Gulu gulu~
At this time, the sound of mycelium heads rolling was heard in the corridor. In addition, there was also a rustling sound of some mycelium roots spreading continuously.

Countless human head fungi began to roll in from outside the hall.

"Hurry up, this thing also has a sense of territory. Kill the big one and here comes the small one."

"KIKI, tear open the fungal mat in front."

Seeing more and more mycelium heads rolling in the corridor behind him, KIKI immediately obeyed Lin Xian's words and used his supernatural power to tear off the thickest patch of mycelium. At this time, this huge mycelium aggregate seemed to tremble in pain, and a large number of spores continued to spray out. At this time, Lin Xian directly used the Mechanical Heart to open the elevator door.

"Get in quickly!"

Everyone quickly rushed into the elevator, and the moment the door closed, a tide of mycelium heads poured into the hall outside, and scarlet light continued to flow inside all the mycelium.
